Augustus Marshall searching for brother Frank Francis

MR. EDITOR -- I wish to inquire as to the whereabouts of my brother Frank Francis. Three of us, brothers, Gus, Thomas and Frank, were brought here by a trader named Gen. George Dorris. I was sold to Wm. Desheil; Thomas was sold on Red River above Shreveport; I left Frank with the trader at Shreveport and have not heard from him since. Our mother's name is Pauline Francis. We had three sisters, Minerva, Rhoda and Mary. Mary is in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where she was carried by Frank Green. Our first owner was widow Mary Francis. We came from Platte City, Platte Co., Missouri. Any information of him will be highly appreciated. Address me at Shreveport, La. AUGUSTUS MARSHALL.
